✅ Completed: It Hurts To Love You

Chapter 11

It was already 6 in the morning when Taehyung took Jin home. They talked a lot about the hospital Taehyung's working at and his internship experiences. He also told Jin about all the surgery he completed while in Seoul and that made Jin be happy. He always liked the course he took, not just because his appa is a doctor, but because it was his dream.

He always wanted to practice in Seoul Main Hospital ever since they visited it during his 3rd year in college. He was so happy when he got accepted but he had to make the worse decision when Jungkook said they should stay together in Busan.

"How are you feeling now?" Taehyung asked as they walk towards the Kim's residence.

"It's getting heavier as I get near the house." Jin said.

"You'll get through it. You are strong. Just call me if you need someone to talk to." Taehyung said.

"When will you be leaving for Seoul?"

"Tomorrow."

"I see. I will visit you there." Jin said.

"I hope you will." Taehyung said with hopeful eyes.

"Well, this is me. Thank you for the night, hyung." Jin said with a sincere smile at Taehyung.

"Please rest for today. You had a big night." Taehyung said.

Jin nodded and slowly opened the door to their house.

When he closed the door, his hyung came running down the stairs with swollen eyes.

"Jin, can we talk?" Jimin asked.

"I won't tell anyone about your secret, if that's what you want to know." Jin said. "Please leave me alone for now, I want to rest." He said then walked past Jimin.

Jimin kept on crying not because he regrets what he did, but because he feared what people thinks of him. He is always the perfect son and the perfect husband, he wants to stay that way.

When Jin sat down on his bed, he felt the heaviness in his heart and within his body. He laid down and did not notice that he suddenly fell asleep.

"Hyung! Where's Jin?" Jungkook said as soon as he saw Taehyung inside their house.

"He's at home now. Why do you even care?" Taehyung said looking angry at Jungkook. "Do you even know how to respect their family? You were a slut for his brother who is married!" He said in a soft voice but obvious anger.

"Hyung... I am happy with Jimin, but now... he doesn't even wants to be near me."

"Serves you well." Taehyung said walking past Jungkook but the latter held his hand.

"Hyung, what does Jin know?"

"I don't know. We never talked about it. He was just crying."

Jungkook's eyes widened. "W-why is he crying?"

"Jungkook, how naïve can you be?"

"What do you mean?"

"Nothing. Jin is fine now. He doesn't want to talk to you for a while."

"That can't be. He's my best friend. If he needs anyone, that should be me."

"See, that's the problem. You only treat him as your best friend. Piece of advice, stay away from him while I can still control myself from punching your face." Taehyung said then left.

Jungkook was confused not knowing what is really happening. Why is Jin crying? What does Taehyung means? Is it possible that Jin likes him?

"Not possible at all." He said to himself. "Is he mad that Jimin was cheating because of me? Fuck! This is making me crazy." Jungkook said to himself.

*************

When Jin woke up, he immediately went to his parents' bedroom. He passed by Jimin's room but it's quiet so he was sure that his brother went home already.

Since it's Saturday, his eomma was for sure at home.

Jin looked at the time and he was sure that his mom is at their bedroom at this time. He knocked and when he heard a voice ushering him to come in, he quickly opened the door and hug his mom.

Without questioning his son's actions, Mrs. Kim hugged back his son and let him cry all his tears.

"You want me to help you out?" She asked.

When Jin nodded, she was sure that his son made the right decision.

*************

Sunghoon's birthday was celebrated at the Park's residence. It was a bigger house, 4x the Kim's and double than the Jeon's. All of Jin's friends were there, including Jungkook. Jin was able to fake a smile seeing his bestfriend and his other friends.

Still, Hoseok was not happy seeing Jungkook and Jimin in one place. Jin did not have to tell them as he found the clues himself.

"I can't believe you can be this kind." Hoseok said to Jin when they were alone in the patio.

"What do you mean?"

"If I am Jimin's brother, I would have exposed him already to his husband."

"Ssssshh! Don't be too loud." Jin said and looked at their surroundings. He breathes out when he realized they were alone.

"Why don't you tell Sunghoon- hyung. He is just too kind for your brother."

"That is their problem to resolve." Jin said and drank the beer that he and Hoseok took earlier from the fridge.

"Jungkook is like a lost puppy following your brother everywhere. Before this night ends, he'll surely be dead drunk exposing himself to everyone." Hoseok said.

"I'll make sure that won't happen."

"You are still an angel. I can't believe it. I'm losing my patience over this." Hoseok said with angry face.

"Fall in love with the wrong person and you'll realize why I am like this."

"I can't and I won't. Never!" Hoseok said to his friend who was watching Jungkook from afar.
